It‘s time to remove the question mark!
A huge congrats to @CraigMCrews, Ray Deshaies and the scientists @ArvinasInc.
1st FDA approval for a #PROTAC on May 1st 2026. A day to remember. Extra drinks at the Proxidrugs GRC in a few weeks!

Nature holds the keys to PPIs—why don't we use them? Some thoughts on stabilizing hotspots without sequence changes, using the emerging non-symmetric stapling. This could unlock the therapeutic potential of native peptides. Now out as @ChemRxiv preprint. https://t.co/XBaWxktLGI
Today I lost a dear friend, mentor, and colleague. Dr. Philip Low was a brilliant scientist whose discoveries transformed human health. I’m deeply saddened by Phil’s passing and grateful for his friendship and mentorship. His legacy will endure. https://t.co/UngCZcPntO
